Summary
Chronic treatment with the des-fluoro-sitagliptin in a mouse model of type 2 diabetes with defects in insulin sensitivity and secretion resulted in significant and dose-dependent correction of postprandial and 6-hour fasting hyperglycemia. Reduction of HbA1c, circulating triglyceride, free fatty acid, liver triglyceride and hepatomegaly was also observed. The beneficial effect of the DPP-4 inhibitor on glycemic control is associated with significantly increased -cell mass and function. This is also accompanied by lower -cell mass and glucagon level. DPP-4 inhibition with des-fluoro-sitagliptin demonstrated superior glucose lowering efficacy and islet cell preserving effects compared to glipizide. Unlike Rosiglitazone treatment, chronic DPP-4 inhibition is not associated with body weight gain. This study suggests the beneficial effects of DPP-4 inhibition could extend beyond glycemic regulation via modulation of insulin secretion to include a potential reduction in cell failure commonly observed in diabetic patients.
